epithet
is
an
adjective
or
descriptive
phrase
that
serves
to
characterize
somebody or

transferred epithet is
one that is shifted from the noun it logically
modifies to

an
epithet

phrase)
is
transferred
from
the
noun
it
should

6
、
Alliteration
：头韵

【英释】
It has to do with the sound rather than the sense of words for effect. It
is a device that repeats the same sound at frequent intervals(

sound repeated is usually the initial consonant sound, it is also called
rhyme
For
instance,
the
fair
breeze
blew,
the
white
foam
flew,
the
furrow
followed
free.

with
）
might
and
main (
尽全力地
)
、
saints and sinners
（圣人与罪人）
、
（
in
）
weal and (or) woe
（无论
是福是祸）
。
头韵仅第一部分或第一部分辅音群的第一个音素相 同。

如果第一部分完全缺失，
那就只能让主元音相同。
头韵是加强行内节奏 感的一种手段，
是节奏式辅助因素。
这也是英
语追求形式美，音韵美的一个重要表现。

【例句】①
He is my
friend and foe .
[
敌友
]

He writes not for money, but purely
a labour of love
.[

1
、
The
universities
are
schools
of
education,
and
schools
of
research.
But
the
primary
reason
for
their
existence
is
not
to
be
found
either
in
the
mere
knowledge
conveyed
to the students or in the mere opportunities for research afforded to the members
of the faculty.
